While I can appreciate the cams Lexus offers I do like the additional lines that some of the competition offers when you reverse. Basically the lines turn and help you figure out where the car is headed. It helps with direction.

No biggie but a neat additional feature that would be great to have.

Some Lexus do, some don't.

Can anyone clarify which current models? Make a list?

Oooo that's a cool feature I had no idea it existed lol... back up camera's are so awesome... best thing since sliced bread.

When the hell did they add that? I don't recall the HS having it either? Is there a button lol.

Euro ones have it, US do not... i think they are now adding it to US as well... my 2007 GS does not have them.

spwolf

it is probably some lawyer crap ... all Toyota/Lexus in Europe have had it since looong time ago.

Not keen on the lines, love the rear camera in my IS, works well.

It's neat but not needed.

I use the bumper (seen on the camera) for reference

The lines are meh. We've got them on the X5 and they are uneccessary imo. The clarity of the camera in the F is light years ahead of what BMW's offer (and it was even worse in their older models).

Does Lexus offer a top view camera? That is the cat's meow imo. I have 270 degree vision that is brilliant when parking in tight spots (ie. my parkade at work). It has allowed me to keep the wheels scuff free as it's a very tight turn getting in and out.

yep, I wish we had them here too, but sadly only for overseas vehicles

I don't think that it is just an over seas thing. Infiniti has had the lines for a few years now. They move when you turn the steering wheel. Also that bird view around monitor too.

Land rover has the lines that turn as well. Very cool feature I hope the ct has them as my mom is interested in getting one

those radar lines can make a big difference when reversing and parallel parking. i've noticed more and more people with the rear cameras. it's funny- i still like to see it for my eyes, so on many occassions when parallel parking, i'll park the car to check if there is adequate space or if i need to maneuver even more in any direction. i like how when we reverse, there's a beeping signal that signifies how close you are to the vehicle/object behind you. that isn't as visual as the radar lines, but they've been quite helpful for me thus far.
